Steve, Very nice work. thanks for the pictures. You have so many clever ideas there. The swim platform looks great. I especially liked the bracket you fabricated by laminating wood and metal. I tend to think of using either wood OR metal. Bending metal to stiffen it is a little beyond my skills. The wood gives you that stiffness. steve Steve R.
